Getting on the roof to turn the antenna around after a windstorm.
The tv remote was the youngest person in the room
Waiting for the tv to actually warm up.
The movie theater was literally the only place to see a movie without commercials.
The Wizard of Oz, King Kong, March of the Toy Soldiers, and Charlie Brown were holiday traditions.
The "BZZzzzzz" sound the Tv would make when you turned it on.
Having a 'Contact Book' for everyones home phone numbers.
BlockBusters, when the VHS would finish and that blue screen would come on and that really screeching noise would start before you rewind.
to make a custom cassette tape, stuff a bit of toilet paper in one of the holes of the tape and put it in your stereo.
When a song you like comes on, press record as fast as possible, when the song is over, press stop and now you can either record more songs or play it back.
To be fair, in those four I'm counting NBC, ABC, CBS and PBS. On UHF there were two, one was good for hockey, the Three Stooges and a hosted movie program at 8pm weeknights. The other, afternoon cartoons and Atomic Monster Theater on the weekends.
I'm in a hotel right now (sewer pipe burst, lower level flooded, have annoying industrial dehumidifiers on and wouldn't be able to sleep, insurance hooked up the hotel room).. and the TV here does that. It's spectrum and it's pissing me off. And.... FUCK I just realized I missed the Agents of Shield premiere, FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK. FUUUUUUUUUUUUCK. That shit better have recorded. I have my directv on record series, so it better have kept up with the new season.
FUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

All the children just want to stay indoors and play video games.
